On Tuesday (November 3), at approximately 12:50 p.m. the Oswego City Police Department’s Patrol Division, assisted by the Oswego County Drug Task Force, executed a drug related search warrant at 28 W. Fourth St., Oswego. Two residents of that address, 20-year-old Jamison S. Limperis and 23-year-old Michael S. Wolf, were arrested and criminally charged.

Our first thoughts today are with the employees, families and businesses that will be impacted, Legislature Chairman Kevin Gardner and Oswego County Administrator Philip Church said in a joint statement to the media this afternoon. “This community appreciates the hard-working people who may be impacted, and we want you to know we support you,” they said. “We urge federal, state and Entergy officials to continue dialogue, and to not stop working to find a way to keep FitzPatrick operating.”

State Senator Patty Ritchie summed up Entergy’s announcement that it plans to shut down the James A. FitzPatrick nuclear power plant in one sentence. “To say that the news concerning FitzPatrick is disappointing is a serious understatement,” she told Oswego County Today. Governor Andrew Cuomo expressed the same sentiments.
